Figure 4From: Nitric oxide induces MUC5AC mucin in respiratory epithelial cells through PKC and ERK dependent pathwaysEffects of NO donor and PMA on the distribution of PKCα in A549 cells. A549 cells were exposed to NOR-1 (0.5 mM) or PMA (1 μM) for one hour and then fractionated. Proteins of equal amounts were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred, incubated with anti-PKCα antibodies, and detected using a chemiluminescence method. The results were expressed as means ± SE of three independent experiments. * p < 0.01 versus control membrane. †p < 0.01 versus control cytosol.Back to article page
